Anyone that can't live at least 6 months without any income is an irresponsible leach!
Any article mentioning misogynist woman hating Porky Pig Rove is utter BS,
It is a file cabinet in a building in West Virginia where Harry Byrd got the Senate to locate it. But... there’s only a lockbox full of slips of paper— that say “The US goverment promises to pay back .....x amount to the Social Security Trust fund”.
ie. the lawyers did what they always do-— raid a trust fund. This one is supposed to be self-sustaining and invested.
another question— how much does the fed gov take in each day in revenue? Direct to gov. coffers? It is quite a lot in excise tax alone.
I’m on SS and I have enough saved to last me through any shutdown this putz can engineer - threaten away, Obama.....
Isn't that the same Dan Rostenkowski who eventually did some serious prison time?
Yes indeed it was!
The EPA's total budget would pay for about four days of Social Security.
That would be "leech."
Six months sounds reasonable and prudent; several years? Not so much.
A perfectly acceptable start!
I got 7.5 but it doesn’t change your premise.
I counted disability and other payments besides retirement.
Bingo! Time to turn the screws.
He would remind seniors that if Congress doesn't raise the debt ceiling, seniors wouldn't get their Social Security checks.On the way to his taxpayer-funded golf outing, he can just stroll down to the WWII Memorial and tell the senior citizens about his threat.
Then start feeding off the others until ya get there....
Good idea - and if we look real real real hard - just might be able to find a few more agencies to shut down...
I’ve had my hard earned money ripped from my hands by our leftist government in the name of Social Security since 1960 and I am still paying into it since I still work for a living.
It was never called a tax but a “CONTRIBUTION.”
Now, we know where the “CONTRIBUTION” is going to be spent....on welfare to support the bums and illegals in our society (those who cheat the system and don’t pay taxes) along with all of the anti-Constitutional Marxist/Socialist programs that have appeared on an ever increasing rate since the demise of our morals and ethics in this society.
I guess the next thing that will happen is that (like in Dr. Zhivago) the government will confiscate my large home and let 3 or 5 families of “new” American citizens from Mexico move in with me.
The time has come to take back our country and the next few years are our only chance to do it by peaceful means.
